What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) AUC0-24h Response [L] After 6 Weeks Treatment.

    Area under the Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) after 6 weeks treatement-time curve from 0 to 24 h post-dose, using the trapezoidal rule, divided by the duration (24 h) to report in litres.

    Mean is actually the Adjusted mean.

    The adjusted mean and standard error (SE) are obtained from fitting a mixed effect model repeated measures (MMRM) including fixed effects of treatment and period; period baseline and patient baseline as covariates; patient as a random effect; compound symmetry covariance structure for within-patient variation and Kenward-Roger approximation of denominator degrees of freedom.

    Measured: day 1 and week 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing tiotropium + olodaterol, tiotropium and olodaterol in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 29 sites in 7 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 25 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in Germany, Hungary, Netherlands, United States, Belgium and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Jul 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) AUC0-24h Response [L] After 6 Weeks Treatment. (time frame: day 1 and week 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01559116, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jul 2015.
